Okay let's try it. Here is an attempt at diamond stripes on my lawn but the first set going on the opposite angle seemed to wash out. This is mowed at 3 3/4 and its a little dry here right now so don't know I'd if it mattered. Any ideas.

I can see the pics in your album, but before I click on them I only see a photo icon, not the actual photo. Not sure why. Thats something the Admin would have to figure out. But I did look at your album, and it looks nice! I like how the one lawn has a "one stripe out, 2 stripes back" pattern. :thumbsup:

Thank you. I wanted to learn how to step things up. The one stripe out and two stripes back is on my lawn and like I said the first set washed out. Was supposed to be a diamond pattern. You can barely see some of the reverse angle stripes.

I think as far as the album goes I saw something that said the pictures wouldn't show up for two hours. Not sure why either.

I've never heard of the 2 hr thing....my pictures show up instantly. But I have been having some issues with a few of the pics I have recently uploaded, so it might be a problem with the forum. I look forward to seeing more of your lawn pics in the future. :thumbsup:

This is from tonight as well, it's cut with walk behinds, due to small gate. We cut opposite direction every week. Just split it down the middle with 2 walk behinds at a time. The guy mowing in the pic is running our last better outdoor products walk behind. He loves that old thing so I keep it around just for him. Everything else has been switched to Scag.

Also I love this thread and seeing everyone's best Work. Reading all the pride everyone takes in what they do.

Not sure why he looks all hunched over, but he's a decent operator, and shows up everyday ready to work.

Looks like he does a good job. :thumbsup:

He's been with us for 3 years, he has funny quarks, but is dependable, works his tail off and doesn't beat on the equipment. He complains right away about anything going on that shouldn't be going on. I like that because I expect absolute perfection from every job.

One is he takes ownership of what's on his trailer, has a specific string trimmer, and blower that's "his". He has specific place he parks his truck and always backs in. He'll only use a specific sprayer that ones "his". I get a kick out of him so I let it go on.
